Pokemon X & Pokemon Y Walkthrough - Anistar City

Anistar City

When you enter Anistar City, a girl stops to inform you a person in the city
knows about Legendary Pokemon and gives you Repeat Balls, which make it
easier to catch Pokemon you've already caught.

Outside the Pokemon Center stands the Memory Girl, who will tell you your Pokemon's memories.
Inside, Mr. Bonding will give you an O-Power. The girl standing by the book shelf outside
the Poke Mart will give you a different TM each day depending on the time of day.
You can get TM32 Double Team in the morning, TM35 Flamethrower in
the evening, and TM90 Substitute late at night.
The Poke Mart here sells powerful TMs like TMs for Fire Blast and Hyper Beam.

Inside the house two down from the Pokemon Center, a guy inside will give you
TM10 Hidden Power. Inside the house north of this is the Legendary Pokemon
expert who will tell you the story behind Kalos region's
legendary Pokemon, Xerneas (if you play Pokemon X,
or Yveltal, if you play Pokemon Y).
North of that is a house with an old man who can take care of your Lv. 5-and-under
Pokemon.

Head over to the gym. Serena will challenge you to a battle and heal your Pokemon afterwards.

Psychic Badge

The Anistar City Gym specializes in Psychic-type Pokemon.
Once you go inside, step into the middle and the gym transforms into crazy rings
of paths and teleportation tiles. Overall, it's pretty straightforward to navigate.

When you leave the gym, Serena will come by the speak to you again.
That's when you'll get an alarming Holo Clip from Lysandre, who announces he and
Team Flare will use the ultimate weapon to clear out all the undesirable people
(non-Team Flare people, of course) to make the world more beautiful. Whoa!
It's up to you to stop them!

Fly to Lumiose City to stop Lysandre and Team Flare before they bring destruction
to the world!

Cafe Lysandre

In Lumiose City, go inside Lysandre Cafe in Magenta Plaza. There's nothing immediately
sketchy about Lysandre Cafe other than the music. Go talk to the waiter and he'll battle you!
It turns out he's a Team Flare Grunt. After beating him, talk to the waitress to battle her too.

Press "A" against the bookshelf behind the waitress to open the hidden door. Go inside.
You'll battle Team Flare Lysandre. He uses a Lv. 45 Mienfoo,
Lv. 49 Gyarados,
Lv. 47 Pyroar,
and Lv. 45 Murkrow. Lysandre will leave after the battle. Go to your left to
start going through the maze.

Fight the first Grunt, then take the teleportation tile. Battle Team Flare Aliana,
who'll then let you through. Take the green tile on the left. Go north, fight the
Grunt, and go into the room to get Revives from the vigilantes you met earlier.
Take the tile on the right. Head west into the room. The Grunt inside will give
you TM12 Taunt. Pick up the Revive. You can also heal your Pokemon
by sleeping in a bed. Go back outside and head east. Take the tile pointing right.
You'll be spun around for quite a while. Continue following the only available tile.

Go into the room and you'll fight two more Team Flare members. Afterwards, they'll
reveal they're stealing electricity to power the ultimate weapon.
Go back outside, take the first tile from the left, go southwest, and take the green teleportation tile.
Pick up the Black Glasses. Head north, battle the Grunt, take the tile, and
go into the room where you'll find a Rare Candy. Head back to take the tile
to end up where you started.

Take the rightmost tile. Take the teleportation tile to pick up a Hyper Potion.
Go back, take the tile on the right, fight the Grunt, and take the teleportation tile.
Head east, fight the Grunt, and head all the way east through the door.
In this room, you'll battle Team Flare Mable, who'll give you the Elevator Key
you're seeking.

Go back to the entrance and take the elevator to B2. Head all the way down the hall
and you'll find the freakishly tall man you saw earlier with Lysandre.
The tall man tells his touching story in a cut scene. Lysandre reveals the tall man's
name is AZ and leaves.

Head back to the elevator and go to B3. Here, you'll battle Team Flare Xerosic.
After defeating him, pick either the red or blue button. No matter what you
press, Xerosic will activate the ultimate weapon!
Another cut scene will play, showing the activation of the ultimate weapon.

Now get out of here and fly to Geosenge Town.

Team Flare Secret HQ

Head northwest in Geosenge Town, past the tipped-over cabins, where you'll battle
a Team Flare Grunt. Continue northwest after that. Serena will catch up to you.
Head into the Team Flare Secret HQ entrance.

Inside the elevator, go up to the controller and press "A", which will take you downstairs.
Get out and go all the way down the hall, where you'll find Lysandre.
He's trapped a legendary Pokemon to power the ultimate weapon. You must stop him!
He'll battle you. Afterwards, take the door to the left and follow the path.
You'll battle some more Grunts along the way. Halfway through, Shauna will join in with you and Serena.
At the end of the hall, you'll arrive at the doors where the legendary Pokemon is trapped behind.

Inside, you'll first have to battle four Team Flare Admins. Afterwards, they'll run off.
Before you take another step forward, save your game. You're about to awaken
the legendary Pokemon who you have only one chance to catch!

Walk up to Xerneas (if you play Pokemon X,
or Yveltal, if you play Pokemon Y) to wake
it up and it'll battle you. To get past this, you'll either have to make it faint
or capture it. I recommend capturing it. It takes some patience to catch legendary Pokemon,
who are quite a bit harder to catch than your average Pokemon. You want to get its
HP very low and keep chucking Ultra Balls at it. Having it asleep or paralyzed
also helps. Or, you can take the easy way out by catching it with your only Master Ball.
If you mess up, just restart the game.

Right afterwards, Lysandre will come by in a weird outfit and battle you one last time.
In this battle, Lysandre will Mega Evolve his Lv. 53 Gyarados into
a Mega Gyarados. After defeating Lysandre, the ultimate weapon will get destroyed,
and you'll all end up outside.

Now, head back to Anistar City and head south onto Route 18.

Route 18

First thing on Route 18, hop over the ledge to pick up a Hyper Potion.
Head east. Past the bridge, pick up a hidden Ether in the corner next to the house.
Inside the house, you can have an inverse battle with the Psychic. After the battle,
he'll give you Sitrus Berries.

Head down the steps. Smash two rocks on the east side, go right under the
railroad overpass, battle the trainer, and pick up the X Defense.
Before heading into Couriway Town, go check out Terminus Cave.

Terminus Cave

Upon entering Terminus Cave, smash the rock on the left to pick up a Soft Sand.
Smash the rock directly north of that to pick up a Max Ether.
Smash the rock to the right of the cart for a Revive. Head east and go downstairs.
Head southwest. Pick up the hidden Dusk Ball on the rock after hopping over
the two ledges. Go north. Right before the bridge, smash the rock to pick up a Star Piece.
Go across the bridge and head southwest. Smash the rock blocking the road to pick up a Heart Scale.
Pick up the Heat Rock. Go back near the first bridge and head east onto the second bridge.

Hop over the ledges. Go west for an Escape Rope. Head back to the other side
of the second bridge and go north. Smash the rock and go inside the narrow passage
to pick up a hidden Moon Stone. Head downstairs. Head north past the trainer.
Smash the rock and head all the way west for a Dusk Stone. You can also
find a hidden Iron on a rock along the way. Go back and head north.
Battle the trainer. Head northwest to pick up an X Attack. Then, head east.

Head up the ramp going west. Smash the rocks, battle the trainer, slide down the
ramp on the east side, and pick up the Elixir. Head east and you can find
a Full Heal. Back to where you were, head south. Go west, smash the rock
for a Heart Scale, and pick up TM30 Shadow Ball by the cart.
Continue south from the fork past the two trainers. Go west for an Iron Plate.
Head east, which leads upstairs.

After going up the first ramp, smash the rock for a hidden Max Ether.
Continue north and battle the trainer. A purple-haired guy is blocking the path,
telling you you can't go on unless you're at least as strong as the Champion.
Oh well; come back here later to catch the legendary Pokemon Zygarde.
Smash the rock near him for another Max Ether.
Head east for a Reaper Cloth. There's nothing more to do here.
Get out of the cave using an Escape Rope.

Outside, follow the tracks to enter the other entrance of Terminus Cave to pick up
TM31 Brick Break. Right outside is a Max Ether. Go down to the
bottom entrance for a Dragon Scale.
